Hiya
we are going to the rocky horror show in manchester - rocky virgins! anyone have any tips for costumes etc- plucking up courage for the stockings and heels bit
s&t
Just had a quick look at your profile piccys and our advice is for you go use the outfits you have on in them - they're sexy without being outrageously so - so, you wont feel like your being stared at, but you will feel like you have made the effort to join in the atmosphere.
Once you've seen the show, and seen the antics, and seen the costumes, (and here we're still talking about the audience) then you'll be more confident in your clothing choices the next time around

When I went few years ago in Liverpool, we had to hand everything in - water pistols, rice, playing cards - everything - due to Health & Safety rules. mad
the only thing we were allowed to keep was our folded newspapers.
Might be worth ringing the theatre before you buy anything.

I think we have been 4/5 times and we always dress up.
merseypair you will have a brilliant time no matter what you wear :thumbup:
This thread reminds me of the last Wigan munch, you should have seen the dance floor when the Time Warp was played, packed out it was :lol2:

:bounce:
Excited! We're off to find stuff for our costumes today! biggrin
He wants to do Frank (don't we all :rascal: *swoon* ) and I'm still not sure about what I'm going to wear. confused
I'm considering maybe the usherette costume. dunno
Bear in mind that at the RHS- if you turn up looking "normal" you'll be the ones who look out of place :thumbup:
They played the timewarp at a nightclub we were in a while back- despite the varied age group, the floor cleared to mumbles of "wtf is this?" apart from one lone timewarper........:giggle: who happened to be sober at the time :shock:
But it's the pelvic thrust............
Wear whatever you feel comfortable in - I have three costumes and I love them all, what I wear depends on how fat I feel though!
ok you need
rice for the wedding scene
newspapers for the rain scene and waterpistols to wet everyone else
you need ktikts for the gimme a break line
you need cards for the cards for sorrow cards for pain but
apart form total costume
also need to download audience partipatoin retors
or you could just go and enjoy the time of your lives

rule number one. - check where the carpark is before you march for two miles across central birmingham on a friday night looking like somebody who doesn't get let out very often. rolleyes
Seriously - go for it. - there will alwasy be somebody there who looks more bizarre than you.

Check the theatre allows all the props though. The place we're going to has banned them on the grounds of health and safety and the place last year did the same. sad
Party poopers!
I'm looking for an usherette outfit in a 'more to love' size and can't find one anywhere.
Can folks help please? kiss

rule number 1 : no matter how stupid you think you look, there will always be someone stupider looking than you! lol trust me . . .

see what i mean? :lol: ;)
rule number 2 : learn to walk in stillettoes BEFORE you go. slogging across manchester paving slabs in high heels is torture. i dunno how the girlies do it? dunno
rule number 3 : learn all the words / moves to The Timewarp. you'll feel daft if you're the only one sat down.
rule number 4 : yep, sadly, props are pretty much banned these days for health and safety reasons, but if you do feel a need to chuck a deck of cards in the air, just don't chuck 'em at the stage. we'll kill you if they stop the show! ;)
rule number 5 : enjoy yerself! the show's fantastic, the stage sets are brilliantly thought out, David Bedella is just revelling in being Franknfurter, and the audience participation is a riot when they get it right! biggrin
neil x x x ;)
No matter what you wear enjoy it,enjoy it, enjoy it. I went last night and had a brilliant time. I'm going again tomorrow and next Saturday - not that I'm obsessed at all honestly biggrin
It all depends how revealing you want to be - you could go from Brad and Janet at the wedding if you don't want to get too dressed up or the floorshow costumes if you do, or anything in between - I do like a Frank though :rascal:
Enjoy it whatever you wear :D
I do like a Frank though

surgeons gown? check! pearls? check! wig? check! lacy underwear? check! ((( sadly, not a black basque, but hey we can't have everything! ;) ))) rubber gloves at the ready! cool
serious question . . . with make-up? or without make-up? not sure i'm all that good with mascara? :P
decisions, decisions? ;)
neil x x x ;)
I like the make-up if it's done properly but to be honest I don't take much notice of the make-up I just like the costume lol all Frank's need ripped fishnets though!!!!

'oh yes love. spot on!' she said.
'not fishnets then?'
'oh no love. definitely not'
banghead

*trails down leeds market yet again*
neil x x x ;)
You don't hve to wear fishnets - i just like seeing them lol
